As it happens, the online multiplayer feature is included in the PS+ Essential package. Yes, I use this feature all the time – whether it be grinding away in Apex Legends or co-oping through all of the levels in Elden Ring. The selection of free games isn’t always consistent, but it’s nice to have them there anyway. All in all, this is the cheapest way to enjoy online multiplayer.

It would have been great to have a competitive versus mode for this content, as it would be an absolute blast to play this as a single player controlling US squads, against another player controlling German fireteams in the same maps. But as a co-op only piece of content, it does what it sets out to do very well within the confines of the narrow scope it operates within. It doesn’t overpromise anything and delivers exactly what it said it would – a series of missions and tools to play them with. I had a great time playing through this with my friend, playing as co-op squad leaders in Hell’s Highway for a couple of weekends.

I agree with you though that the biggest element of this ending is far and above the criticisms of the plot, and that is the line Angie says to Leon in this scene: “You can complain all you want, but you’re stuck with us now.” He’s stuck with the title, the work, and the people. And, despite his typical grumbling, I don’t think he’d trade it for the world. It’s a beautiful scene of acceptance, classically delivered in tsundere fashion.

This thread is like watching an entire fandom unfold before our very eyes. People are sharing practical solutions, feeling our pain, warning us of potential dangers, and just discussing the story in all its glory. Watching this play out is proof that community forums can offer up a multitude of solutions to one simple question: where.

I get giddy talking about co-op horror, so here’s the short, useful version I’d tell a buddy before we queue up: you can usually play with friends across different systems in 'The Outlast Trials' thanks to cross-play support, but your individual progression—like unlocked perks, character levels, and most cosmetics—doesn't automatically follow you if you jump from, say, Steam to a PlayStation account.
From what I've dug through patch notes and forums, the multiplayer servers let players mix platforms for matches, which is awesome for finding parties. Progression data tends to be saved to whichever storefront or account you used while playing (Steam, Epic, PSN, Xbox). That means purchases, unlocked items, and local saves are typically tied to that platform. Occasionally there are exceptions for things tied to a publisher account, but Red Barrels hasn't rolled out a fully seamless cross-progression system that moves everything between PC and consoles for most players.
If you're planning to switch platforms, consider checking receipts for purchased DLC and be ready to treat the new platform as a fresh start unless the developer explicitly confirms account linking. Personally I love that I can still team up with friends on other machines, even if I have to grind some cosmetics again — the scares are still worth it.

No crossplay issues playing with the switch player here. All good with my buddy last weekend playing on the PC. Only minor complaint is the UI looks a bit cramped on the Switch’s screen for split-screen. But trading that off for portable co-op with friends on other platforms is a fair trade.

My last piece of advice: Google the title of your novel plus “Novel Updates”. NovelUpdates.com is a hub for all things fan translation. On the site, you can find links to and read about the current status of any ongoing translation as well as archived series that may have completed fan translation in the past. I would recommend this site above all others for finding translated webnovels.

The snacks I look for are no-mess. Olives and pickles in individual packets are yummy and odd. Beef sticks are protein rich. For sweets I go for the licorice or fruit leather kind. They won’t melt or get sticky. A small Tupperware with some hummus and the necessary vegetables for dipping is also very nice. A bagel with cream cheese is another good choice. It’s sturdy enough to be packed in a backpack. All these snacks are fun to eat and very suitable for long train rides.

So my cousin and I are on different consoles. I’m on PS4 and he is on PS5. I initially searched online to see if the game supported cross-gen and everything that I read stated that it did. So my cousin and I bought the game, downloaded it and we could press invite and join each other’s games instantly. No extra settings, no extra accounts etc.. Just a very simple experience. The game is terrifyingly fun and even more so with someone to share the experience with. My only worry before purchasing the game was that I’m on an older console and that it may hold us back in some way or even cause problems, but no. The only drawback is that my loading screen is slightly longer than my cousin’s, so I am always the last one to join the lobby, but that is about it. So, to answer the question in the title, no there are no cross-gen issues whatsoever.

A note on the detectives: In Gone Girl, the police are amateurish and outsmarted by Amy. But in The Girl on the Train, a detective helps to uncover the truth and there are several key moments of insight but these come from the detective and also from Rachel’s damaged memory. The work of a detective and the retrieval of truth from within a self damaged by past trauma is a theme that moves from outsmarting a system to internal truth-seeking.
